Pink

I love the color pink almost as much as I love the color red.  But when you think about it....pink is really just a lighter color of red. 

This sweetie is a neighbor that NEVER let me take her picture.  But today was special, she was mesmerized by Toby and couldn't stop talking about him so while she was talking I was shooting.  She also loves pink, check out that hat and those little pink earrings.   This week's challenge at Kim Klassen's Texture Tuesday is people.  I usually never add a texture to images with people so this was a real challenge.  I think this worked.

I couldn't resist making one more pinwheel...and this one a pretty, pretty pink polka dot with a little glitter in the center.

The coneflower burst into bloom yesterday, I love this one....it has multiple layers of petals, and that bright orange center is wonderful.

A beautiful soft pink begonia.

Loved this little crock, picked it up on sale, but I now know why it was on sale....it leaks, note the water on the table. 

This is an older image, taken in the spring, but I think the Dogwoods are exquisite...they are so perfect they almost don't look real. 

And what would a collection of pink flowers be without the rose...nothing more perfect.  The beauty of pink in flowers is astounding.  But then, nature itself is astounding.

A little bling....my Mom's pin, she loved her jewelry.  Her absolute favorite color was pink.

And finally, I love pink so much that our living room is pink...it is relaxing and cozy and just makes you feel good.
